Docsis 4.0 is still cable, idk about other things

Look, I like 1 indices languages like R and Lua.

It’s 2 4 gb sticks and so I’d have to hope that it supports 16 gb of ddr3.

As for the ssd, that’s in the cards eventually. But since it’s an aio Pc, it’s an utter pain to work on

It’s actually not shit for a hdd which confuses me. It’s just an Hitachi Travelstar hdd. I’ve used faster (on paper) machines that don’t feel as responsive as that computer.

It’s an i5-2430m powered AIO PC with a HDD and 8 gb of ram (its only saving grace). It’s fine for what my dad uses it for, which is largely web browsing for work and excel.

I made that comment to my mom this morning. Also I have tried Linux on that machine and its weird. It has a very old digitizer that sort of works. (Sony Vaio AIO). Disabling it is a #1 priority.

He’s technically inclined enough to install it himself entirely.

Other issue is the wireless card. It’s an old Qualcomm card (not ath9k).

We’ll figure it out once windows 11 stops working. Or if the drive dies.

I need to try that actually for my old laptop. It blue screens if it updates past 1809

As of 15 min ago, my dad has decided to install windows 11 on his 12 year old home pc. Oh boy.

At least on my pavilion, it’s just one simple daughter board for one of the USB ports. It’s the one I use the most. I can replace it easily if it breaks. The pcb is also very simple so it ends up being very cheap.

The square shaped one threw me for a loop the first time I worked in a computer with one.

Very Andersen powerpole esque

In my experience, USB c is soldered to the main board while the plug is a small module thats attached to the module. It’s easier to replace a small module than replace a whole USB c port. Ideally it’d be on a seperate board too. But it might be a bit more complex.

My sister broke one of the two USB c ports on her Thinkpad and if the second one breaks (both support charging), I can’t fix it easily without sending the motherboard out for repair and spending like $200.

Edit: you can support both USB c and DC plugs. My laptop can (HP pavilion).

Yeah but then it isn’t as light (but 250 grams is nothing tbh). The 64Wh one is 888 grams. Still less than a kilo which is very impressive. Just under 2 lbs.

I also hate the lack of USB ports now. That’s about average for the “nice” laptops of this day and age. I hate juggling around my peripherals bc I don’t have enough type c ports. I do hope it’s a barrel plug for charging and not only USB C pd.

That would be awful. i have a laptop at roughly 31 Wh capacity and it was basically unusable with the 11th gen i5 intel cpu. 2 hours of usable battery life. Take into consideration that batteries tend to live at 80% capacity for a long while and then you realize that laptop will have a 24Wh capacity. Basically two smartphone batteries worth of capacity

Idk if it counts as GenAI but I use Waifu2x to remove jpg artifacts and upscale textures to a useable state.

The one machine I had that ran Millennium Edition was a Sony laptop that came out right after it launched. Since it was the oem install, ig it survived for some time. My dad used it for Oracle DB work before I got it and used as a computer that could access the internet. I’ve only had one bsod with it. But realplayer deleted all my VXD files.

You actually have to exit the setup menu(f2 iirc), run a specific command, and then it will let you make an offline account.

If you don’t have a NIC, it will make you get an internet connection before proceeding. That was my experience on my laptop. What had happened was that for whatever reason, my wifi card wouldn’t work with the amd motherboard in my laptop (it wasn’t cnvio, and it was the same issue with ac 7265 and an ax210). So I had to resort to that to install windows.

ME wasn’t that bad. I think I just got lucky in terms of stability?

ikr. Deezer can’t be that unknown. Right?

Because you could fry your PC.

I’m also gen z and I learned it. I’m also 24.

How so?

Haven’t seen that meme source in a while.
